Title: Rolling curved shower door
Post by: Johnstons on November 11, 2018, 08:31:23 pm
The coach we just changed to has a rolling shower door that doesn't roll smoothly.  When the bottom guides are not connected the movement  is smooth.  I don't know if these are correct for the bottom or not.  They look a bit like repurposed toilet mounting hardware.  The top has a rollers.  I've searched the forum and the web.  If these are what's supposed to be on there I will make it work.  Otherwise I'd like to find what is supposed to be there.

One more time, thanks for the help that always shows up.

That doesn't look right. But not sure what the right ones look like. It has been to long since I worked on a rolling shower door.

If the bottom guides are not in place will the door have enough "swing" to it for the top rollers to come off track? I think those doors were designed for stationery applications. The "guides" may be in place to keep the door from coming off while bouncing down I-10 (or other such wonderful roads).

If you need the bottom guides, I would try to fit some nylon bypass door rollers.

Just a thought.
